The 1,130th episode of the TV anime "ONE PIECE" (Fuji TV, Sundays at 11:15 p.m.), based on the popular manga by Eiichiro Oda, was broadcast, and actor Naoto Takenaka, who plays Shiki the Golden Lion, made a special appearance, which became a hot topic, with "Naoto Takenaka" trending on X.
In this story, Bartholomew Kuma's brutal past is depicted, and the Rocks Pirates make an appearance. Shiki appears as a member of the Rocks Pirates who appeared in God Valley. Shiki is a character who appeared in the 2009 animated film "ONE PIECE FILM STRONG WORLD," and Takenaka reprised his role. Shiki also appears in the episode depicting Kuma's past in the original work, but since he does not appear in many scenes, there was a lot of attention on whether Takenaka would continue to play the role in the anime.
When Shiki appeared in the anime, viewers on social media were excited, saying, "They called Naoto Takenaka!?" and "It was Naoto Takenaka, right!?" When it was revealed in the end credits that he was a "special appearance," excited comments were posted, such as, "It's so hot that Naoto Takenaka is the voice of Shiki," "Thank you Naoto Takenaka (for the special appearance)!!," "This is incredible, he's manly," and "It said he was a special appearance, but if Shiki appears in the future...I can't wait!"
